Mindwalk (Must See) A Film for Passionate Thinkers

4. Nope, I did not miss it.

But there's nothing in that post that says anything about Ramtha, or Fritjof Capra, or the pseudo-scientific claims of Deepak Chopra, as espoused on the queen of Woo's own Televisionary program, the Oprah Winfrey Show.

Plus, we haven't seen this claim pass peer review. And as we all know, one paper does not make it fact. But that doesn't stop those with a woo woo agenda from connecting a single paper about a putative quantum connection to a biological process from exploiting it to advance their woo woo.

And about all those quotes in the OP. There is no personal authority in science. It doesn't matter if one is Einstein, Feynman, or fucking Steven Weinberg. All were brilliant and made big discoveries. But the test of a theory isn't the person who made the theory, it's how the theory stands up against nature herself. Nature is the ultimate arbiter of truth.

So people can cite quotes by famous scientists to pitch their woo woo bull shit. But people who pretend to channel 35,000 year old Lemurians (with cheesy Indian continent accents) are still either self-deluded lunatics or criminal scammers.

I opt for the latter.

I am suspect of this paper on principle, as should anybody versed in science. As should be the person who wrote it. The primary attribute to the scientific method is skepticism. If you lose that, you'd probably believe somebody who claims, on authority, to channel Ramtha.
